WASHINGTON DC<\/strong> \u2013 El senador de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley, emiti\u00f3 el
\nsiguiente declaraci\u00f3n sobre el discurso nacional del Presidente Obama sobre atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica antes
\nuna sesi\u00f3n conjunta del Congreso:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cEl presidente Obama dio un paso cr\u00edtico esta noche al poner
\nesta conversaci\u00f3n de vuelta a donde pertenece: sobre soluciones a uno de nuestros mayores
\ndesaf\u00edos nacionales. En lugar de histeria y ataques pol\u00edticos, necesitamos
\npara discutir c\u00f3mo arreglamos el sistema de atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica. Expuso una clara
\nvisi\u00f3n de c\u00f3mo podemos hacer que eso suceda.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cLa gente puede no estar de acuerdo sobre las soluciones, pero el presidente s\u00ed lo hizo.
\nEsta noche haremos un buen trabajo al recordar a la gente lo que est\u00e1 en juego si no hacemos nada. I
\nquiere reiterar su mensaje de que aquellos que dicen 'no' sin ofrecer
\nproponen alguna soluci\u00f3n propia: aumentos de primas de dos d\u00edgitos
\npara las empresas y los trabajadores, m\u00e1s racionamiento por parte de los bur\u00f3cratas de las compa\u00f1\u00edas de seguros,
\nM\u00e1s denegaciones basadas en condiciones preexistentes, enormes d\u00e9ficits e impuestos m\u00e1s altos.
\nen el futuro, y menos certeza en tiempos econ\u00f3micos ya inciertos.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cComo dijo el Presidente esta noche: 'Ahora es el momento de
\nacci\u00f3n.' Es hora de arreglar nuestro sistema roto, mantener a las compa\u00f1\u00edas de seguros
\nhonesto, dar a los consumidores m\u00e1s opciones y mantener bajos los costos. debemos reformar
\natenci\u00f3n sanitaria para que ninguna familia vuelva a quedar en quiebra y destrozada simplemente
\nporque tienen la desgracia de enfermarse o lesionarse\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
